Mert Amasyalı Launching is usually a term you’d use for a ship. You know ships have names. It’s an odd word to use to describe the starting of people’s musical careers.
It's easy to have clever comebacks when the people interviewing you ask silly questions in such a serious way. They are walking caricatures of what reporters are. They must have been laughing so much having a band for s*its and giggles, making it big then having all of these stiff suited interviewers asking them such serious, overly analyzed questions about themselves.
"You had unresolved leading tones, a false modal frame ending up as a plain diatonic. What do you say to that?" "Ah well, we're gonna see a doctor about that" Has to be my favorite 0:23
But what is “a false model frame ending up as a plain diatonic” supposed to mean even? Did someone garble that? Was the reviewer putting us on? Whether it’s modal or tonal, it still uses the diatonic scale. “Diatonic” isn’t synonymous with “major”. It doesn’t require a particular tonal center.
When they're messing with the swedish reporter, his voice-over says: 'What John Lennon and his friends are saying is only understandable by those who speak Liverpool-ian'
My favorite: Interviewer: "Which one are you?" John Lennon: "Eric." Interviewer [to John]: "What kind of girls do you like?" John: "My wife." Interviewer [to George]: "What kind of girls do you like?" George: "John's wife."
Foreign Film Fanatic well, “Buddy Holly and The Crickets” were a huge inspiration for macca and lennie, so they changed from “The Quarrymen” to “The Silver Beetles” and after a few name evolutions, Stu settled them on “The Beatles”

That is one of my favorite interviews other than the one where Ringo and Paul are saying hi on the camera to Ed Sullivan and it starts out Mrs Ed,,, no Mr. Ed... Lol
Fian Greenleaf It wasn’t a stupid question. The interviewer was quoting what an American had said. The phrase “UnAmerican” meant a lot more than just “Not American” It was used to mean undesirables like communists, etc. Of course John knew this and was sending it up.
These guys had it down...and got it...they knew who they were and where they going, and the confidence shows in their humor. Loaded with talent...loaded.
2:07 lol i love how they got each other’s back haha starting when George says white Christmas John didn’t say no he just added ‘and...’. Then when the interviewer says did you say white Christmas Ringo jumps in saying YEA. To make it funnier when he says it isn’t rock and roll Ringo says yea it is at the same time with Paul saying it’s not rock and roll but we like it. Then they all start singing it. It funny also how in the scene when they stop singing Paul is just staring at the interviewer like crazy haha.
3:35 John: reading the book George: I don’t like that... *RIPES THE ENTIRE PAGE OUT* John: you like that better? George: yeah John and George: proceeds to have a page ripping party of John’s book
The four of them fed off of each other. They were such a unique and loving group of friends that not even the most prestigious or most numerous amount of reporters could scare them. They always had fun laughing and joking around as long as they were all together.
it´s amazing how The Beatles were able to handle the press while having fun at the same time. Celebrities today would crack under the pressure from the media. Greatest band ever.

But what is “a false model frame ending up as a plain diatonic” supposed to mean even? Did someone garble that? Was the reviewer putting us on? Whether it’s modal or tonal, it still uses the diatonic scale. “Diatonic” isn’t synonymous with “major”. It doesn’t require a particular tonal center.

That is one of my favorite interviews other than the one where Ringo and Paul are saying hi on the camera to Ed Sullivan and it starts out Mrs Ed,,, no Mr. Ed... Lol
2:28 the whole interview had me rolling. The way John looks at the camera and Paul McCharmley’s laugh
They have the best comebacks I've ever heard.
Aww, Paul is always a sweetheart. He was asking for that paper so nicely, and the wink! hahahahah
Eric, Ringo Stone, George Parasol and Paul McCharmley are the members of that great band... The Shoes
LMAOOO
This is one of the best comments I’ve ever seen
"He's only 7 weeks old, he doesn't understand about the BBC yet" 🐕
Aw young Martha
1:25 ish 😂 your haircuts aren’t very American “very observant because we aren’t American”
Stupid question with logical answer
Fian Greenleaf It wasn’t a stupid question. The interviewer was quoting what an American had said. The phrase “UnAmerican” meant a lot more than just “Not American” It was used to mean undesirables like communists, etc. Of course John knew this and was sending it up.
@@johnp515 still a stupid question
These guys had it down...and got it...they knew who they were and where they going, and the confidence shows in their humor. Loaded with talent...loaded.
2:07 lol i love how they got each other’s back haha starting when George says white Christmas John didn’t say no he just added ‘and...’. Then when the interviewer says did you say white Christmas Ringo jumps in saying YEA. To make it funnier when he says it isn’t rock and roll Ringo says yea it is at the same time with Paul saying it’s not rock and roll but we like it. Then they all start singing it. It funny also how in the scene when they stop singing Paul is just staring at the interviewer like crazy haha.
3:35
John: reading the book
George: I don’t like that... *RIPES THE ENTIRE PAGE OUT*
John: you like that better?
George: yeah
John and George: proceeds to have a page ripping party of John’s book
These 2 dead band members
I can't tell if John is actually mad at the end or not
@@jessicathethreestoogesfan2635 nunca estarán muertos, su música se seguirá escuchando siempre y siempre los recordaremos.
Paul and John literally finished each other’s sentences
"Which one are you?"
"Eric."
...
"Well, Eric-"
"I'm John."
"Oh...well _John_"
*I'm crying*😂😂
Well Eric is just tryna get revenge on George for liking Johns Wife.
The way he whips out the book at 3:27 makes me laugh every time 😂
This particular brand of humour has aged incredibly well.
The four of them fed off of each other. They were such a unique and loving group of friends that not even the most prestigious or most numerous amount of reporters could scare them. They always had fun laughing and joking around as long as they were all together.
it´s amazing how The Beatles were able to handle the press while having fun at the same time. Celebrities today would crack under the pressure from the media. Greatest band ever.
That moment when John and Paul said... “cheap stories” and “cheap news” after saying “cheap paper” just tells you how their minds were almost similar.
I love them ❤ not only musical geniuses but their humor is unlike anything we see today and that's unfortunate.
RIP John and George 🖤
The Beatle had the "punk" attitude without ever having to prove it.
